About me

Apart from several years of scientific research, I have spent my entire working life working for commercial companies in and around healthcare. I started in sales, and progressed through various roles to marketing, people management and later to strategy development. I have learned an incredible amount from the complex field of healthcare, and our current healthcare system. I also learned a lot about the innovations that are needed to continue to provide high-quality care, not only now, but also in the future. I now use all this knowledge and experience to support small and large organizations in and around healthcare in defining their unique contribution to healthcare.

I am also a member of the Central Expert Panel of ICHOM (www.ichom.org) to help them define their best route to creating value for patients. And as an expert in the field of strategy, transformation and Value Based Healthcare (VBHC), I am regularly asked as a speaker or for interviews or podcasts on these topics. Finally, I am a member of the governance board of a large organization for elderly care and have a seat in their committee for quality, safety & innovation.

When we will work together you will notice that I am a fast concept thinker with strong analytical skills. Through a helicopter view I can separate main issues from side issues and provide focus and direction. Together we will take a step-by-step look at the challenge you face, in which I will be both visionary and roll up my sleeves and get to work.

If this appeals to you, just contact me, maybe I can support you or your organization?
